Asian gangs will pay off an employee of a gas station to "double" swipe your card, the first swipe is legit , the second " under the counter" swipe is on a fraud cc swipe machine that simply records the info from the card..

Later after they pull the machine after a month or 2 they check the limits , and reproduce the actual credit cards and load them with your info , now they just use it like a regular visa.
I didn't use the card for anything offline, so I'm sure it happend online somehow. I just forwarded the name I've gotten to the police, maybe they find out more in the next months (LOL)
